lyrics

My my my Mary I have to let you go
Our affair was temporary And upset the status quo
Maybe if you were older And I was less mature
My thoughts still smolder But your soul is so impure

Our love burned like the cuyahoga
But it couldn't change me into something I'm not
The flames melted the fire trucks
But can't convince me to take another shot

My my my Mary, you're such a drama queen
But you don't have a worry as you become one with the machine
Maybe if you could learn, maybe if I didn't care
The fever still burns but I can find that anywhere

Our love burned like the cuyahoga
But it couldn't change me into something I'm not
The flames melted the fire trucks
But can't convince me to take another shot

I wonder where your heart went
Wonder why your life meant more
With every dollar spent
Without thought for consequence

My my my Mary I'm looking for release
I'll take just what I can carry 'cause I've got simple needs
Maybe you'll be inspired, Maybe I'll have regrets
And we can re-kindle the fire But I wouldn't take that bet
